| Useful Tips |
| Speed limit - by roberto from veracruz |
| Follow speed signals even if is 2 slow. U can never b 2 carefull, as most drivers there dont follow the rules n regulations |
| Other - by Pedro from California |
| The gas stations in Mexico are run by state monopoly company called PEMEX (Petroleos Mexicanos). Hmm... I don't like any monopoly! You can pay only by cash, credit/debit cards are not accepted, and they sell only unleaded gas. The gas in Mexico was a little bit MORE EXPENSIVE than in California. Is it because of state monopoly of Pemex or higher taxes for gas - hmm... probably both, am I wrong?

| Parking - by james cassidy from england |
| Always leave enough room to get out of your parking space but never take up to much room so there is enough room for other cars |
| Speed limit - by Joel from Paris |
| Be ready to tip everyone. Anywhere from 3 to 5 pesos (30-50 cents) for parking. If you have problems with the police for speeding...you can pay them too. Bargain and the end result should be about 50 pesos as a foreigner. In Mexico City, after 10pm, use traffic lights as suggestions...it's legal to burn them for safety reasons after this time. Buckle-up and HAVE FUN!! |
| Safety - by Michelle from Chicago |
| Never drive without wearing seatbelts. |
| Safety - by Jacques from Zimbabwe |
| First thing to do is get Mexican Auto Insurance prior to entering Mexico, if you are in an accident and do not have them the authorities are likely to permanently confiscate your car and lock you up.( I found out the hard way). Oh yes and if someone flashes you, it means that you are coming up to a narrow road and only one car can pass at a time, they are not just being friendly as I thought. |
| Safety - by Colin from Canada |
| Do not drive at night as this is when most of the highway crimes are committed, and as many of the cars in Mexico do not have working headlights and brakelights, it's hard to spot oncoming cars, very scary at times. Not to mention the livestock that mission around unattended. Trust me, if you hit a cow with your car, your car will come of second best. |

Acapulco – Found in the south-west of Mexico, on the Pacific coast, Acapulco has long been a popular destination for tourists from across the globe. The main draws of this resort city are its incredible beaches and the bars which surround them.
Guadalajara – The second largest city in Mexico is a fabulous place to visit with its historic buildings, excellent museums and vibrant nightlife. Guadalajara also offers a much more serene experience than the capital.
Puerto Vallarta – The beautiful beach resort of Puerto Vallarta is situated on the Pacific Coastline of Mexico and is a terrific place to just relax on the sand. On top of the array of quality beaches there is also a lovely old town centre and of course a great nightlife.
